Science: Weather Control?

In the technological millennium
that scientists have promised civilization after the war, Professor
Albert Eide Parr, director of the American Museum of Natural History,
believes that at last something can be done about the weather. He
thinks that cities can be planned with built-in climate control.

Addressing the graduating class at University of Chicago's Institute of
Meteorology, Professor Parr observed indignantly that scientists have
done practically nothing about the weather. "Our relations to the
forces of weather and climate," said he, "are still in the
most primitive cultural stage."
